Dear John,
i did follow the Rcmdr instructions for macosx, having no results though.
I am soon upgrading to 10.5 and hope i'll encounter no problems.
The silly thing however was that i had installed every file needed for rcmdr to run but apparently had no results.

Is there maybe some key point which is usually forgotten, more than what i have done (descripted below)?

Ben

p.s. i am also attaching Chiara to this email who is providing assistance to the research and is struggling with Rcmdr on her laptop.

Dear Ben,

It seems clear that the problem is in loading the tcltk package. To confirm
that, does library(tcltk) fail?

I'm not very knowledgeable about Mac OS X. I do have a MacBook, with OS X 10.5, however, and encountered no problems installing and running the Rcmdr package. Have you seen the R Commander installation instructions for Mac OS
X 10.4, at
<http://socserv.mcmaster.ca/jfox/Misc/Rcmdr/installation- notes.html>? If
not, maybe something there will help.

I'm copying this response to Rob Goedman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, who has provided
help before.

Regards,
 John

Subject: [R] Problem with tcl/tk and Rcmdr - urgent help required


Hello everyone,

i have been searching the whole day, trying ANY solution offered by the internet and before headbanging against the wall would like to try asking
for your help.

As many others, i am haveing problems loading the Rcmdr package with
Macbook
running Tiger 10.4.11. X11 version updated to the last one after having
manually installed.

I have also installed (obviously) the Rcmdr package with all dependencies.

However (damn) i keep having the following answer to the library (rcmdr)
command:

library (Rcmdr)
Carico il pacchetto richiesto: tcltk
Loading Tcl/Tk interface ... Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath,
...)
:
  impossibile caricare libreria condivisa

'/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.8/Resources/library/ tcltk/libs/i
3
86/tcltk.so':


dlopen(/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.8/Resources/ library/tcltk/
l
ibs/i386/tcltk.so,
10): Library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/libtcl8.5.dylib
  Referenced from:

/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.8/Resources/library/ tcltk/libs/i3
8
6/tcltk.so
  Reason: image not found
Error : .onLoad non riuscito in 'loadNamespace' per tcltk
Errore: pacchetto 'tcltk' non caricato

The language is in italian but it basically says it cannot load shared
library.

x11 is running, the file tcltk.so phisically exists (i have checked
myself)
and both R and X11 are in their last updated version.

I have also tried restarting after updating X11. Can someone try to help
me?
i have recently swithced to mac and am having an important exam soon.

Thanks to anyone.

Ben
